Description
The mem0 1.0.0 server lacks authentication and authorization controls for its memory deletion API endpoint (DELETE /memories/{memory_id}). The endpoint allows unauthenticated users to delete arbitrary memory records without verifying their identity or permissions. A remote attacker can exploit this by sending unauthenticated DELETE requests to remove any memory entry from the database, leading to unauthorized data loss and potential denial of service.

AI Analysis

Impact

The mem0 1.0.0 server contains a memory deletion API endpoint (DELETE /memories/{memory_id}) that does not enforce authentication or authorization checks. Unauthenticated users can delete arbitrary memory entries, leading to unauthorized data loss and possible service denial. The flaw is a missing authentication weakness (CWE‑306) coupled with an authorization bypass (CWE‑862).

Affected Systems

The affected product is the mem0 server on version 1.0.0. No other vendors or product versions are listed in the CNA data. The vulnerability applies to any deployment of this specific version that exposes the API over a network.

Risk and Exploitability

Based on the description, it is inferred that the attack vector is remote, over HTTP, requiring only network connectivity to the API. Because the endpoint accepts unauthenticated DELETE requests, exploitation is trivially achievable by any client that can reach the server. The EPSS score of <1% indicates a low exploitation probability in the broader landscape, yet the CVSS score of 6.5 reflects moderate severity due to data loss and potential service disruption. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, so there are currently no publicly known exploits reported.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade mem0 to a version that implements authentication and authorization on the memory deletion endpoint.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, constrain access to the server by restricting inbound traffic to trusted hosts or networks using firewall rules or a VPN.
  • Add application‑level authentication middleware to the DELETE /memories/{memory_id} endpoint and enforce fine‑grained permission checks before allowing deletion.
